batman-adv: avoid keeping false temporary entry
In the case when a temporary entry is added first and a proper tt entry is added after that, the temporary tt entry is kept in the orig list. However the temporary flag is removed at this point, and therefore the purge function can not find this temporary entry anymore. Therefore, remove the previous temp entry before adding the new proper one. This case can happen if a client behind a given originator moves before the TT announcement is sent out. Other than that, this case can also be created by bogus or malicious payload frames for VLANs which are not existent on the sending originator.
